  1. Kind of like how Willie has a thing for Jose Valentin.
  2. That and he dove into the stands against Seattle. People are still comparing that play to Jeter's. I really don't know which one was better.
  3. I guess that .303 average 27 HRs 108 RBIs at age 21 must've slipped by you? Not comparing Wright to A-rod yet but I'm a Met guy and Wright has been the man since he has come in. I can't wait to see what he and Jose do in October.
  4. The one position where we have an American at.
  5. He has a cannon for an arm, that's for sure. I still like Wright better :worshippy:
  6. Very talented.... just needs to get some walks.
  7. Yankees fans shouldn't be that upset with A-rod sucking right now. Maybe it'll be the opposite and then he'll actually hit in October while he does okay in the regular season.
  8. Maybe not for Maddux but I think we should shop around Gomez. It's great that he has speed but in a few years, we're still going to have a lot of speed. Beltran Reyes Hernandez (?) And that doesn't even inclue FA signings.
  9. Great job by Tavarez to get out of the jam.
  10. I bet the Cubs would like Diaz and Gomez...
  11. Wow, when did Wily Mo get to .324?
  12. Very happy we're getting Glavine back!
  13. Can't say I expected anything out of this game. Thank god there is an off day tomorrow.
  14. I have a feeling that pitch to Jones was his last as a Met.
  15. Looks like all Mets fans got their wish We wanted him gone, he's gone. Now what?
  16. Name the people that are put in awe by your ideas.
  17. Steve Phillips said most likely Tommy John surgery will be required for this elbow. I have bene against the idea for a couple months now of Heilman starting but with Julio appearing to show some life, I think now is the time to call Aaron up into the rotation. I think we are going to see Pelfrey in a Mets uniform sometime late this year if not traded. Hopefully Minaya will not overpay for another starter.
  18. Man was I the opposite. I predominantly had 70% cheap hits when I played. But later in the year in the playoffs specifically, my average sucked but I was hitting balls right on the button. So maybe if I placed them better and continued to gain power I could've gotten even better my next season...
  19. I'm not expecting too much out of this stretch. It appears that Zambrano will at least be out for this span of time, and that's another arm. Hopefully, Bannister continues to progress and returns soon. The bullpen has been unbelievable so far. Keep it up guys.
  20. Yeah, I'm regretting quitting baseball a few years ago. I came off my breakout year winning MVP and having a sick .700 average. Most of that came off of weak grounders rolling down the third base line and me beating it out but I'd take it any way it came! But that was the time where I didn't know anything about baseball. To take on 3-0, to look fastball on 2-0 and 3-1, to protect the plate down 0-2, etc. And I was a great first basemen back in the day too
  21. Well, here are my top LBs right now in no particular order: Pierce Wilkinson Lavar Blackburn Short Torbor Eric Moore (?) You think Emmons is going to make the final roster?
  22. I think he'll make it, not necessarily start but make it. I'm sure management wants as much depth as possible after last year in the playoffs, but odds are it won't happen again. EA seems to be pretty high on Short as a person and player and him and Lavar are very close, so those factors lean to him being on our final roster at least. I'm still laughing at our fan base's immediate reaction of drafting Wilkinson, and now things are coming out of our camp that he may be our most exciting pick and a possible candidate to start this year? Just goes to show, you have to know the guy before you rip the pick.
  23. No, I'm 95% sure that Short gets on the final roster.
